You might want to try to sing the melody, while playing the same notes you are singing at the same time. Also, it is very important that

I have been a musician for over 30 years, I learned to play by ear, I was giging at 16 years old, never had the chance to take the fundamentals of piano, glad I joined although I've been playing for a lot of years I consider myself a student. This one teaching I should have done years ago

- Guest_750 : Earl Windsor
- Guest_750 : can u tell me who makes the earl winsor piano
- Guest_750 : i was wandering if u can help with a piano question
- Guest_750 : hello
- tijan : i never paid attention to that addition am new to this...
- avguste : the remaining scales are all related to the major and minor ones.
- avguste : marylin, one of the easiest way to learn scales is to obviously know all the major ones, then remember that the minor relative scales are 1 and 1/2 step down.
- Guest_2242 : Hi guys, Can anybody give me some information about the dastgah system in persian classical music. I'm so lost. Thanks
- Guest_374 : im a leaner nd i need help
- Guest_235 : Marilyn, it will all come in time. Don't worry and keep practicing.
- Guest_235 : We are in the room and have been piano teachers.
- Guest_3301 : i need a raga scale in the key of Eb
- marilyn : I know my chords. The 6th and 7ths I figured out I'd have to use both hands. I finally figured out the easier way to learn the scales is to know the major scales real well, then alter the major ones a little to get the other scales. It all seems overwheming. I hope it'll all fall into place. Talk to you later. Thanks again!
- marilyn : hey. no one is writing. I'll check on here another day.
- marilyn : what's up the the number question? Hmm. No one wrote back to me so, I;ll have to get going. I work 10 hrs./day and have lots to do when I get home. So, I'm very busy. I have a little time off right now and figured I'd write. So, if you don't hear from me in a while, it's because I have a real hectic schedule. Otherwise I'd be on here more often. Nice to meet everyone!!
- marilyn : Oh oh my messages are not showing up
- marilyn : Hello?
- marilyn : I've been having trouble writing on here for some reason. This is a test. I'll keep trying.
- mav04 : I really really really appreciate the e-book. I didn't think I could remember the chords, but I do know them pretty well. I'm starting to practice the scales-seems like so many! I don't think I can remember all of that. Do we have to remember every scale by heart? And when is the other e-book going to be available? Again. Thank you so very very much!!!

- Sarah : Hey ,,Thanks Rod for Allevaiting for me ,,and Thanks for every thing .JUST LIKE YOU SAID at LEAST I can keep the keyboard but its not like My piano.Your work is just great And your All doing a Fantastic job....You are graet Rod... ,Stay in touch Peace
- Rod : Hi Sarah! They are selling your piano ... Will you be able to keep a keyboard at least? Or you won't be able to play anymore? What a pity! To answer your question: Most of our team is from US and Canada - writers, editors, musicians- and then we have many others from many parts of the world -pianists, graphic designers, developers, and musicians- from Puerto Rico, India, Philipiness, Sri Lanka, Ukraine, Greece, Brasil... and myself from Argentina! So yes, we are looking forward to change piano the way people learn piano in the whole world. We want all pianists to be able to improvise and compose their own music, instead of just being able to read music from a score. Help pianists not only be 'interpreters' and let them become 'musicians'. And that is really everyone's mission in this team. We are almost done with the redesign of our site !
- Sarah : any way they are going to sell my piano this weekend bye
